Lu Sizhan led the Four Lin Sword Gate and the onlookers away from the Sword Platform, but didn't ask Lu Yin and Ming Zhuo to leave. He let them talk there.
No outsider had ever been left alone on the Sword Platform before, but Lu Sizhan had shown respect for Lu Yin and Ming Zhuo.
The main reason outsiders weren't allowed to stay alone was that the Sword Platform bore the sword intent left behind by generations of Four Lin Sword Leaders, and they feared outsiders might learn from it. But neither Lu Yin nor Ming Zhuo would try to do that.
"I heard about your situation from Master. If you need help, just ask. Those girls aren't easy to deal with." Ming Zhuo smiled.
Lu Yin was grateful. "Thank you, Senior."
Ming Zhuo waved a hand. "Don't call me Senior. Maybe before long, you'll be calling me Senior Brother. Ha ha!"
Lu Yin didn't explain. Since Azure Lotus Supreme hadn't mentioned that he'd refused to become her disciple, he was happy to take advantage of the misunderstanding.
He didn't know how many disciples Azure Lotus Supreme had, but surely any one of them would be formidable. The Seven Fairies had only become her disciples within the past century. Their personal strength might be ordinary, but their backing was absolutely overwhelming.

"Honestly, I didn't expect you to be so strong in the way of the sword. You were strong enough to cut through Lu Sizhan's sword strike. I'm not exaggerating—his sword strike really was on par with Lu Cang's. In the Nine Heavens Universe today, there are few who can match him in sword intent." Ming
